The Wizard: From Zero-Ring Wizard to Almighty Lord

Chapter 23

The horns of war echoed in the air, and the Forge's army launched a fierce attack on multiple supernatural forces.

This war is just like the furnace's usual training method: in the baptism of blood and death, the most powerful dark wizard is tempered.

Once every ten years, the mortality rate is extremely high. Only the best of the best can survive the battlefield and return to the furnace.

The dark wizards of the Forge have long been accustomed to such bloody hunting, and this hunt is also part of the tradition of the Forge.

However, this time the hunt was different from usual.

In the high blue sky, an elegant black dragon soars in the clouds.

Its huge wings stirred up gusts of wind, like a black lightning flashing across the sky.

On the back of the black dragon, there was a witch sitting impressively.

Her face was bright and pretty, and her purple eyes were deep and moving, sparkling with an irresistible attraction.

At this moment, there was a trace of doubt and deep thought in her eyes.

"Our front has been stretched a bit too long."

Astrid whispered, her voice as clear and sweet as a silver bell, echoing on the black dragon's back.

"We almost defeated the three nearest extraordinary forces in a very short period of time. Now, the army has penetrated deep into the enemy's hinterland... Something seems to be wrong, especially the painstaking sect. As a third-level force, they are actually two It was broken by us within a few days..."

She paused, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes, "Maybe something is happening quietly..."

The black dragon's wings waved violently again, and a low voice came along the wind, with a hint of comfort:

"Hahaha, Astrid, don't worry, your teacher won't care about such a trivial matter. You have to know, what is the meaning of hunting?"

The black dragon suddenly turned its body and crossed the sky, its voice became more and more steady:

"If someone really dares to target us, it will be exactly what the old guy wants. Believe me, if this is the case, he will be happy about it and drink a glass of blood elf wine..."

Astrid frowned, but still murmured in a low voice: "But it still makes me feel uncomfortable. It doesn't matter that these apprentices died in the furnace, but if they are hunted in vain by others like birds, it will be a waste of the resources of the furnace... "

"Hahaha, you girl..."

The black dragon disappeared into the clouds, but its laughter continued.

Her identity is self-evident - Astrid, a talented female student personally recruited by the Lord of the Forge five years ago.

…………………………

Time passed, the Forge War was in full swing, and the Potion Garden was still as busy as ever.

The war has been going on for three months.

During this time, Linn stayed in the potion garden. As the war continued, the work in the potion garden became more and more arduous.

At first, the two newcomers Linn and Remy were only responsible for handling potions and packaging resources. The work content was simple, but as their strength increased, the difficulty of the tasks gradually increased.

Now, they have been taught more advanced knowledge - "Introduction to Potions".

This is a precious pharmacy course. If you study this course in wizard colleges, you often need to pay a large sum of magic stones.

And in the Crucible, this course is also not free.

"Introduction to Potions" requires one thousand points to redeem.

Based on Lin En and Remy's current salary, I'm afraid it will take three years of hard work before they can meet the exchange conditions.

Of course, if you cannot pay in one go, Melting Pot also provides considerate loan services.

But that means they have to take on heavy debt.

Both Linn and Remy had to bear the pressure. After all, studying this course was related to their future work.

"You have to pay to work! Knowledge is indeed expensive!"

Linn sighed, with a helpless smile.

As the work continued to progress, Linn's working environment also quietly changed.

He was no longer staying in a simple greenhouse, but was transferred to another area, and the types of magic potions and magic weeds he took care of were also very different.

Lin En had a vague feeling that if he wanted to enter the core area of ​​the potion garden, he would have to thoroughly understand all the potions and herbs grown in the potion garden, and master the knowledge of "Introduction to Potion Science".

Yes, it has been almost half a year since she entered the potion garden, and Linn has been working in the greenhouse outside, responsible for maintaining the potions.

During this period, he noticed that he and Remy were not the only two new apprentices in the potion garden.

There are also many unfamiliar faces. They are probably apprentices who have joined the furnace and entered the potion garden before.

However, due to insufficient knowledge of potions, he was unable to enter the core area of ​​the potion garden to work.

"The three-tailed butterfly flower loves sunlight. It often disguises itself as a butterfly, attracting real butterflies, and then preys on them. It is almost not dangerous. Its main function is to heal injuries, and it is especially good at mental recovery..."

Lin En was walking in the greenhouse, and her eyes stopped on a flower with a strange shape.

The petals show the intertwined posture of three butterflies, as if they are about to dance at any time.

Lin En opened his mouth and told the efficacy and use of this flower.

These contents have been recorded in detail in the "Magic Potion Care Manual" issued by the Potion Garden.

Lin En had already memorized this book by heart, and now he closed his eyes again and began to silently recall the knowledge points in "Introduction to Potions".

"The three-tailed butterfly flower, if combined with the killer butterfly of the Black Forest, the windless grass and half of the queen bee's tail sting, can be used to make the precious potion 'Kiss of the Seventh Night'. This potion can greatly improve mental strength within ten minutes and continuously enhance the recovery effect of mental strength. It is one of the most expensive medicines..."

Lin En opened his eyes and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

This has become a way for him to entertain himself.

On the one hand, he uses this to check his mastery of the knowledge he has learned, and on the other hand, he prevents forgetting by constantly reviewing.

In addition, Lin En often complains about the names of these potions.

He really thinks that many names are vague and it is impossible to guess the actual effect of the medicine from the name.

"Eight out of ten of these potions are deliberately mysterious. Are they all invented by the Riddler..." Lin En couldn't help but mutter in a low voice.

Just as he was about to continue his daily work, a call suddenly came from a distance.

Lin En looked up and saw that it was Colin.

Since the outbreak of the Crucible War, Colin has been taking refuge in the potion garden.

Three months have passed, and today Colin actually came to see him.

"The teacher has finally finished his work and asked me to come to you."

Colin walked closer with a smile.

Hearing this, Lin En's pupils suddenly condensed.

Since he joined the Furnace for half a year, there has been no news since the cheap teacher left for something.

Lin En still remembers that when the other party accepted him as a student, he had to go through the process to proceed to the next step, but was disrupted by the sudden information, causing him to leave with only three books.

Since then, Lin En has been waiting for the cheap teacher to find him and continue the unfinished part.

Now, there is finally some movement!
